She is an affectionate lady who loves getting and giving pets! But she is also still sensitive and a bit shy, so she can change her mind quickly.

Is your lap dogless and cold? Well we have the solution for you! Our sweet 8 year old lady, Geri, is the ultimate lap dog! A love bug who adores human companionship she is also affable with 4 legged creatures. Quiet and content to snooze the day away, she also enjoys her neighborhood walks where she can take in all the smells and neighbors she comes across. She's super into Little (her lamb toy), heating pads, watching you work around the house and smelling the rosemary, but she's not into loud noises (including barking), so we think she'd prefer to reside in a home with calm adults. Interested in meeting Geri? We'd love to set up a meet and greet!

Laser toys bring out the kitten in this mostly dignified older lady and she has yet to meet a treat that she would not eat!

Prepare your best manners and come to the rescue to meet her.

Though still quite young Chandler was already a seasoned street mama in her pre-Santé DâOr life. Our pretty and petite grey tuxedo lady is still learning how to be an indoor kitty, so she is not going to be the ideal fit for every home. Sheâs looking for a quiet and loving home with an easy-going human who wants to watch her grow into the cat she is meant to be. She is still quite nervous, but she has a gentle fan club holding quiet & cozy meetings to teach her the perks of the great indoors. Put on your slippers and join her club!

Sweet little Jill Paws can be nervous at first, but if you give her love and time she blossoms into a wonderful kitty. This beautiful buff girl also has a white pendant and an ear tip (which just means she was rescued from the streets). Our young Jill does have the softest fur you have felt. And while she will make you work for it before you touch it for yourself, we promise you it will be worth it. She gets along great with other cats, especially her pal Jack, but we also think sheâd be a wonderful only kitty for the right home. Meet our special gal pal in person at the rescue.

Q T Pi arrived at the rescue from a difficult hoarding situation... on March 14th, Pi Day!
Though she is now settling in nicely, she HATED being in any kind of enclosure so much, with repeated rubbing up against bars, she turned the tip of one of her ears inside out! We think this only adds to her cuteness, but is also something to keep in mind for planning how to share space with other cats, trips to the vet, and so on. She is also on a special diet to keep her delicate senior digestive system in good shape. We think she is about 12; plenty of years of fun and cuteness in store for the family who would like to share their home (preferably without kittens, human or feline) with a valiant and sweet survivor!

Tiny little I-O-Ne has a tale to tell! This petite senior lady came to us from a difficult hoarding situation. She is now very happy to have a space to roam and call her own here at the rescue. She is SUPER affectionate and loves to be brushed. But she does have her special priorities: she doesn't like a lot of loud noise or lots of quick or rough play, so children (both human and feline) are not for her, though other adult cats are fine. What is for her? Special treats, laps, and soft bristle brushes. Also, compliments and high perches to survey her Queendom from. She'd love some appreciation from you!

Enjoy morning cuddles with a sweet and mature little lady? Gracie might just be your cup of tea! Her hobbies include looking out the window, napping and watching tv with you! As our dilute calico lady came to us declawed, she's looking for a relaxed and calm household with no animals and preferably no small humans. And because she's been known to have some tummy issues in the past dietary consistency is key, and of course a clean litter box is a must!
Good at self play, she's independent, but also very cuddly on her terms, especially in the am. She's still new to the rescue from foster, so we're seeing more of her shy side right now. Ask to meet her and her adorable bob-tail!

Looking for a fuzzy best friend? Someone who thinks you are the cat's pajamas? Well your searching days are over because Maverick would love to love you! This snuggly, chatty guy really loves spending time with his humans, so if you work from home and are looking for a companion this guy has your lap covered! Like to boop noses? He loves getting booped! Want to crawl under the covers? He's gonna join you. Cats aren't his thing and we don't think other animals would be either, so he's be best suited for a single cat household. Humans though, he adores, so expect him to request pets from all his visitors. He can be a bit of a handful sometimes, but it is a handful of love and adoration.
Please note that Maverick lives in a foster home, so we'll need to schedule a special visit in order for you to meet him!

Our ginger boy, Butterbeer, had a tough life out on the mean streets before he came to us.

Handsome, intelligent and playful, this grey stripy monarch is looking to rule your roost. A young royal, King George, is into all the good things in life like food, play and love, but all on his terms of course. Because his majesty deserves all the attention we think that he would prefer to be an only cat, but if you have an extremely loyal feline subject in your house he might acquiesce to sharing a kingdom. Come and meet and then fall in love with his royal highness King George. He is one of a kind.

Tabby boy Wonder Cat is learning how to be an indoor kitty, so he is looking for someone with patience and love. His eyes may look a little strange, but that is part of his charm and also part of his special eye surgery that helped him see clearly and feel better. This guy has plenty of potential. He's just looking for the right home to show how remarkable he can be!

Our Murray is the sweetest fella you ever met. Affectionate, this guy has a purr motor that wonât stop. Have other cats? He loves them! Got dogs? Sure, he likes them too! In fact, although he can come across as shy at first our guy Murray loves everyone and everyone loves him. Heâs just naturally charming. He does have a complicated digestive tract, so heâll need to be on a special food, but keeping him feeling great is well worth it.

Tortoiseshell Lady Longcat is incredibly selective. Beautiful and refined, this slightly older cat is looking for the right person to call home. Not just anyone will do! She can be nervous when you first meet her, but if you take the time to get to know her you will see exactly how remarkable she is. After some time with us at the rescue, her friendly side is beginning to come out: she is now offering head-bumps and side-sweeps to her most loyal subjects, and will accept her favorite treats from even new visitors to her realm.
As unique as her markings, Lady Longcat would very much like to live on her own with you to serve, honor, and protect her.

Sashimi is an incredible and very handsome cat! Mysterious and aloof, heâd prefer to judge you from a far, but if you have patience, and more importantly treats, heâll come and meet you in person and let you pet him. Heâs not the cuddliest of cats, but that just makes the love he gives more special because you have to earn it. He enjoys being up high, so heâd love for you to have some shelves he can perch on as well as comfy beds to nap on. Heâd probably be okay if you have other cats if given time and a proper introduction, but for the most part heâd rather be alone.

Ms Honey Rider is all her own woman. She is friendly when she wants, and a loner when she wants, too. A recurring skin condition made her cranky at first, but is now well-treated. Every so often, a bit of irritation will return-- and so will her irritation!
But mostly she is a content and funny lady, happy to find a cozy perch from which to judge all the wacky goings-on. When the mood strikes, she joins in and surprises us all!

Beautiful Sylvia loves her wigwam for "getting away from it all" in the hubbub of a busy rescue, but if you come to her and give her a gentle warm greeting, turns out she is full of interest and affection! She will even walk up onto the shoulder of a person who really grabs her fancy.
Sylvia will probably always need the ability to find a little "alone time" when needed, but she is a really great, mellow, and truly poetical girl.

Tremendous tabby Camille loves to lounge in the sun and is never late for dinner. Affectionate, playful, smart and just the most delightfully bit sassy she is seeking a loving home with plenty of treats! Please note that our girl is FIV+, but sheâs very healthy. Sheâd do best in a home where she can be an only kitty, with other FIV+ kitties or with non-aggressive cats. (NOTE: FIV cannot be transmitted to other animals or humans: it is only a concern between cats, and even so is primarily passed through blood, not saliva or air; so most FIV+ cats can expect smooth and happy adoptions, just like our other cats!)

Sabrina is our tailless wonder! She came to us after being hit by a car-- at 6 weeks old she had major surgery, and the surgery to remove her tail left her with some nerve damage, poor little girl! The little puff on her rear only makes her cuter, though-- like a bunny/cat hybrid. She is a friendly, sweet cat who has an unassuming nature and enjoys being petted, especially on her chubby round cheeks.
The surgery left her with some residual quirks that mean Sabrina likes to potty in an extra water bowl in her cage, and sometimes needs help getting her bottom totally clean, but she does not have accidents and knows what she's doing even if we don't. Sabrina would make a great pet for an experienced cat owner or a first timer despite these minor inconveniences, though, given her gentle nature. She gets along with other animals as easily as she does with people!
